The question was asked almost systematically to members of the Government in recent days: will the discount on the price of a liter of fuel be extended to compensate for supply difficulties at gas stations? Several ministers had explicitly formulated the hypothesis of an extension of this bonus. Elisabeth Borne has made a definitive statement on this issue by announcing the extension of this measure for an additional 15 days:
Therefore, the calendar of the device is somewhat interrupted by this extension. The government discount of 30 cents that applies from September 1, therefore, will not end on October 31 as originally planned, but around November 15. As of this date, it will last 10 cents and it will be 31 December 2022. Due to TotalEnergies, the additional 20 cents will also be extended by 10 cents before the end of the year.
Devices oriented beyond
Guest of the Face to face of BFMTV and RMC this Monday morning, Bruno Le Maire confirmed that the government discount would no longer apply in 2023. “That the Prime Minister decides to extend it for 15 days because there were difficulties and that there were still some at service stations, everyone can understand that, he considered, but everyone will also understand that we cannot permanently maintain a measure that is also an incentive for the consumption of fuels, including fossil fuels, which is a subsidy for fossil fuels”.
On the other hand, the Minister of Economy and Finance has once again indicated that another more specific device could succeed the current discount. In the state, rebates benefit all motorists regardless of their income or how often they use their car.
